Definitions
- This invention relates to folding table structures, and in particular, to a leg structure which operates to move wheels into an operative position in the folded position of the legs, enabling the table to be moved easily.
- Folding tables are well known in the art. They commonly are used in homes, offices, training rooms, cafeterias, etc. when extra table space is needed. When not needed, the tables are folded up and stored in some convenient manner.
- the prior art reveals a number of structures which are designed to enable a working surface, for example, a table, to be moved from its working position to its stored condition. In general, these structures tend to be complicated, and are designed to be associated with the ground engaging end of the leg structure.
- the prior art references of which we are aware include U.S. Pat. No. 3,799,073, issued Mar. 26, 1976; U.S. Pat. No. 3,861,325, issued Jan. 21, 1975; U.S. Pat. No. 3,557,720, issued Jan. 26, 1971; U.S. Pat. No. 4,932,333, issued Jun. 12, 1990; U.S. Pat. No. 5,615,451, issued Apr. 1, 1997 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,779,542, issued Oct. 25, 1988 .
- One of the objects of this invention is to provide a folding leg structure which provides wheels for movement of an associated table top.
- Another object of this invention is to provide a low cost folding table structure which includes a wheel structure.
- Yet another object of this invention is to provide a wheel structure for a tabletop which incorporates the wheels in a manner that is aesthetically pleasing in function and use.
- Yet another object of this invention is to provide a fold up table which includes adjustable leg structure.
- a table has at least one leg structure operatively associated with the underside of the table.
- the leg structure in turn includes at least one wheel associated with the leg structure.
- a pair of wheels is associated with each leg structure.
- the leg structure includes the wheels themselves, and a link between the leg structure and the underside of the table, permitting the legs to be moved between a first working or table supporting position and a second folded position. Movement of the legs towards the second position operates to move the wheels from a first position near the underside of the table to a position relatively further from the underside.
- the legs also are adjustable to provide various table heights.
- FIG. 1 illustrates an illustrative embodiment of foldable table employing the leg structure of our new design
- FIG. 2 is a view in side elevation of the table shown in FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is a bottom plan view of the table shown in FIG. 2;
- FIG. 4 is a view in side elevation.
- reference numeral 1 indicates one illustrative embodiment of foldable table of the present invention.
- the table 1 includes a top 2 , having an upper side 3 and a lower side 4 .
- a pair of beams 5 and 5 ′ extend along the underside 4 of the table in a conventional manner.
- the embodiment illustrated includes a pair of leg structures 6 and 7 associated with the underside of the table 1 , as later described in greater detail.
- the top 2 of the table 1 may assume a variety of designs, and any of those designs are compatible with the broader aspects of the present invention.
- leg structures 6 and 7 are identical and for purposes of brevity, only a single leg structure is described in detail. Those skilled in the art also will recognize that our invention may find utility in constructions where only a single leg structure is employed.
- one end of the table maybe removably mounted to a wall or other supporting structure while the leg structure 6 provides the second support for the table.
- leg structure 6 includes an upper tubular structure or tube 10 , a first leg section 11 , a second leg section 12 , a footpad 13 , and, in the preferred embodiment, a pair of wheels 14 .
- the tube 10 is a cylindrical structure adapted to receive and mount the first leg section 11 .
- each single tubular structure 10 is adapted to receive and mount two of the upper leg sections 1 1 . Attachment between the leg section 11 and the tube 10 may be accomplished in any convenient method.
- each of the beams 5 and 5 ′ is generally L shaped in side elevation, the L being defined by a leg 20 and a leg 21 .
- the leg 21 is positioned so it abuts the lower side 4 of the table 2 , and is attached thereto by any convenient method. Epoxy adhesive or conventional threaded fasteners, for example, are used in the art.
- the tube 10 is sized to be positioned between the legs 20 of each of the beams 5 and 5 ′, as best observed in FIG. 3 .
- Each tube 10 has at least one axle 25 associated with it, which extends outwardly along each of the opposite ends of the tube 10 . While described as a single axle, those skilled in the art will appreciate that in fact the axle may be separated. That is to say, the axle 25 need not be continuous through the tube 10 . Rather, a pair of individual axle sections may be mounted along each end of the tube. Axle 25 , whether a single and or multiple parts, is used to mount the wheels 30 and 31 of wheel pair 14 along the opposite sides of the tube 10 . Also mounted along the axle 10 , inboard of the respective wheels, is a link 40 . Link 40 may assume a variety of shapes in various embodiments of the invention.
- each end of the tube 10 has a link 40 associated with it.
- Each of the links 40 is attached to its respective beam 5 or 5 ′.
- Each of the beams 5 and 5 ′ also has a notch or receptacle 56 formed in it, which is sized to receive the axle 25 in the table supporting position of the leg structure, as later described in greater detail.
- a support arm 57 extends between each of the leg sections 11 .
- the support arm 57 has a pair of struts 58 associated with it.
- the struts 58 extend between the arm 57 and respective one of the beams 5 and 5 ′.
- the struts 58 are rotationally mounted about an axis 60 associated with the respective beams 5 and 5 ′, an axis 61 associated with the leg sections 11 , and a pivot point 62 associated with the link 40 .
- the leg section 11 and 12 preferably are telescopically mounted one within the other.
- a series of adjustment openings 70 are provided along one side of the leg section 11 .
- the leg section 12 carries a spring loaded plunger 39 which enables one to move the part 12 with respect to the part 11 along the openings 70 to adjust the height of the table, the plunger 39 extending through the selected opening 70 to maintain the desired table height.
- Footpads 13 are conventional and may comprise any of a variety of designs for providing support to the legs.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 the extended and stored positions of the leg structure are illustrated.
- the wheels 30 and 31 are positioned very near the underside of the tabletop 3 , and, as is observable in FIG. 1, often invisible to a user of the table.
- the axle 25 is received in the notch 56 of the beams 5 and 5 ′ in a conventional manner.
- a conventional locking mechanism may be employed to retain the axle locked in the notch 56 , keeping leg in its table supporting position and preventing inadvertent collapsing of the leg.
- any latching mechanism if employed, is released and the leg structure 6 merely is rotated towards the fold up position shown in FIG. 3 .
- the link and wheel inscribe a movement arc 75 , which permits the leg structure to fold, while simultaneously moving the wheels 30 , 31 from their position adjacent the underside of the table 1 to a position relatively outboard with respect to that top.
- either end of the table merely is lifted, and the table wheeled along the opposite wheel set, in what we have described above as wheelbarrow fashion, to move the table 1 to a new location or to storage, for example.
- the legs are height adjustable
- the leg structures may be single height, if desired.
- the particular design of the legs may be altered. We have found it particularly convenient to employ what resembles a “K” design to the legs. This permits or gives a user in certain situations greater access to the length of the table without running above of the associated leg structure. In computer training room situations, for example, associated wire management devices may be employed with the table, if desired. Alternate designs for attaching the strut between the leg structures and the table may be utilized, if desired. These variations are merely illustrative.
